The Glenview 311 app offers the Glenview community with quick and easy mobile access to the Village’s non-emergency services. From our Public Works team, to Code Enforcement and Animal Services, citizens can use this tool for reporting non-emergency concerns that affect your quality of life; i.e. potholes, street light outages and loose animals. It allows for the convenient submission, handling and tracking of service requests, offers a dynamic user interface, and includes geolocating features to pinpoint the location of the service need. All reports will be routed to the appropriate Village Department to be addressed in a timely manner, and you can even be notified when the work is complete. The Glenview 311 app is developed by SeeClickFix (a division of CivicPlus) under contract with the Village of Glenview.
